'The Crocodile'

How doth the little crocodile

Improve his shining tail,

And pour waters of the Nile

On every golden scale!

How cheerfully he seems to grin,

How neatly spreads his claws,

And welcomes little fishes in,

With gently smiling jaws!

Lewis Carroll

"After Many Springs"

Now,

In June,

When the night is a vast softness

Filled with blue stars,

And broken shafts of moon-glimmer

Fall upon the earth,

Am I too old to see the fairies dance?

I cannot find them any more.

Langston Hughes

"Some people walk ...."

Some people walk in the rain, others just get wet.

Roger Miller

"Our rational minds ...."

Our rational minds can never understand what has happened, but our hearts … if we can keep them open to God, will find their own intuitive way.

“Be Here Now”, Ram Dass

Layer on layer

Layer on layer,

Colour and show,

Whence truth?

"Wake up at dawn ...."

Wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving.

Khalil Gibran
